Antisemitism : an American tradition

Pamela Susan Nadell (Author)
Antisemitism, an American Tradition by Pamela S. Nadell examines the history of antisemitism in the United States from the arrival of Jewish settlers in New Amsterdam in 1654 to the present day. Drawing on historical research, the author explores how anti-Jewish prejudice, discrimination, and exclusion have shaped American Jewish experiences across social, political, educational, and economic spheres. The book also documents Jewish responses to antisemitism, including legal advocacy, community organization, and coalition-building. Through an analysis of historical events and contemporary incidents, the work investigates the persistence of antisemitism in American society and its impact on Jewish life
